Many people would say Lady Gaga’s new album “The Fame Monster” is not a good album. I can see where they are coming from. There are only eight different songs, and it is hard to understand any of them. However, to me, it is quickly becoming one of my …

April And The Phantom is a song by Animal Collective which appears as the second track on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Taking a less avant-garde than the previous track on the record, April And The Phantom opens up in a lighthearted manner which is …

In My Lifetime, Volume 1

“Wishing on a Star” is a little known single and music video that can only be found on the United Kingdom release of his second album “In My Lifetime, Volume 1″. No wonder it’s so little known because …

Even as my tastes in music have changed over the years, the band “No Doubt” has remained one of my favourite bands. This is because I find their music to be quite usual and an interesting mixture of many of the other types of music I have been interested …

Hung up is the first single of the album “Confessions on a dancefloor” by Madonna. The music video was shot by Johan Renk. It is inspired by the movie Saturday Night Fever.
This video of Madonna is definitely one of the best videos of Madonna. Her style, dance, hair and …

I am without a doubt a fan of the group One Republic. Between they’re hopelessly addicting lyrics, to they’re catchy instruments and melodies, this group was destined to make it from the start. There latest song, “Good Life”, which is featured on the comedy, “Easy A”, is another destined …

Overview - Let It Be, the final studio album of The Beatles, is made up more of melodic tracks rather than just traditional rock songs, although there are still some of those on here, mixed with some great songwriting and excellent vocal delivery. For me, there aren’t too many …

John Michael Montgomery sings a song called “The Little Girl”. It is a very sad song because it tells the story of a little girl who used to hide behind the couch when her parents would fight until the night that her dad killed her mom out of jealousy …

This audio CD doesn’t have as many songs as some of the other Beach Boys CDs that I own, but twenty songs is still a lot of songs to listen to. I purchased this CD because it contained a handful of songs that weren’t present on my other Beach …

Love in this Club is a slow and somehow really addictive song to listen to and also slow dance to. It is sung by Usher and it has a bit of a “bad boy” flare to it as well, which makes the chorus of the song even more appealing …

The first time I heard the song “City on Our Knees” by Toby Mac it was on the ending scenes from the movie “Grace Card”. Not only does the song bring to light some deep emotions that everyone feels when listening to a song that is meaningful to them, …

Regina Spektor is the most adorable female recording artist I know of. She has an amazing voice, a great look, and is talented in more ways than one. Her ability to play the piano is a definite plus and I love the way she sounds live. Her style is …

Feels is a record by Animal Collective which was their follow up to Sung Tongs. I’ll be honest and admit that I think Sung Tongs is an incredibly hard record to follow, but I can thankfully say that I think Animal Collective lived up to the challenge with Feels. …

I have never really been a huge fan of Beyonce’s. But I am at least glad that she is breaking from some of that choppy singing that she does. In this song, she muses over the possibility of what it would be like if she were the …

Where is the love is a suprisingly good song from Black Eyed Peas. In saying this I am not implying that I am suprised that Black Eyed Peas can produce a song of decent standard, I am sure they are a group of highly talented individuals, I am merely …

Overview —“ Texas Flood, the debut album released by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble is a collection of excellent blues songs, and more importantly to me, excellent guitar playing by Stevie Ray Vaughan. I’ll be honest and say that I really don’t listen to very much blues rock …

Eyes Open is a song by Wolfmother which appears on their second album, Cosmic Egg. The track wastes no time in opening up with an interesting guitar pattern and the vocals also join in the mix pretty quickly as well. Throughout the verse, the vocals sound fairly tamed in …

It is no secret that I like melody in music, and even more so with guitars specifically. There is something about a melodious guitar line that really pulls me in, and keeps me listening. Unfortunately, it seems like melody itself is a notion that does not have a prominent …

Matt Nathanson’s newest album “Modern Love” is my favorite album of the year. I have never been a hardcore Matt Nathanson fan in the past. While I, like the rest of the Top 40 world, love “Car Crash” and “Come on Get Higher,” as a compilation, his latest album …

Black Swan is a son by Megadeth which appears on their record United Abominations. The track starts off with a fairly paced melodic lead guitar line which slightly reminds me of Iron Maiden. The verse soon comes in with a nice riff but the track unfortunately has a very …

This is probably the most upbeat, pop-rock, hippie song I have ever heard and enjoyed. There’s not many that could make the trumpet seem like it belonged. I always thought it was a classic instrument that should strictly be used in belletristic composition, not in contemporary pop. “50 Ways …

“Sucker” is a Peeping Tom off of their album “Peeping Tom”. Peeping Tom is just one of the many associated acts and bands that Mike Patton either formed or contributes to. What made me want to review this particular song “Sucker” is that it quite oddly features the beautiful …

Winter Wonder Land is a song by Animal Collective and the seventh on their record Strawberry Jam. Returning to the traditional sound present throughout the rest of the record, Winter Wonder Land opens up with a vocal section accompanied by some fairly chaotic music behind it. Although the opening …
